A. Human males
B. Human females
C. Frog’s both males and females
D. Frog’s males
Solution
The term urogenital refers to something to do with each urinary and genital organs. The ureters are present in a pair for conducting urine.
**Complete step by step answer:**In Humans:
The urine travels from the kidneys to the bladder in two skinny tubes known as ureters in human males. The ureters measure eight to ten inches long. Muscles within the channel walls tighten and relax to force the urine down and off from the kidneys. Tiny amounts of urine pass through the ureters into the bladder every ten to fifteen seconds.
In human females, the structure and function of ureters are the same which means it’s a simple tube-like structure that has the only purpose of carrying urine from the bladder to the outside of the body.
In Frog:
In the frog, the ureter (urinary organ) consists of several structural and functional units known as nephrons or nephrons. The two ureters emerge from the kidneys within the male frogs. The ureters act as a urogenital duct that opens into the cloaca (drainpipe). The thin-walled vesicles are seen at the central part of the body part that opens within the cloaca.
So the correct answer is option D- 'Male frogs'.
Note: In frogs, two ureters are connected to the urinary organ. Particularly in a male frog, the ureters open into the cloaca which facilitates the sperms and urine to pass. It acts as a urogenital duct, that carries sperms alongside urine in male frogs. feminine frogs, it opens one by one into the cloaca and helps in excretion of the waste out of the body.
